Southern Pines reaches out to pet owners affected by tornado

HATTIESBURG, MS (WDAM) -

The Southern Pines Animal Shelter and Spay and Neuter clinic are doing their part to help pet owners affected by the tornado.

Last Saturday they went to door to door in some of the hardest hit areas passing out pet food and dog houses and seeing what other help their pets may need. The needs of the pet owners were so great, they quickly ran out of food to give out.

That is why they have decided to hold the outreach again this Saturday. Food and other pet supply donations are still needed. They could also use a few volunteers to help with the outreach on Saturday.

Donations can be dropped off at the Spay and Neuter Clinic on Hardy Street and at the shelter on North 31st Ave.

Anyone wanting to help in the distribution should meet at the Spay and Neuter Clinic at 9 a.m. Saturday to start loading up the spay and neuter van.
